Three things!
Sep. 13th, 2012 06:44 pm1. I have internet at home now! One of the girls upstairs is sharing hers, for a quite reasonable price. THANK YOU, LADY FROM UPSTAIRS WHOSE NAME I DO NOT KNOW. YOU HAVE GREATLY IMPROVED MY LIFE FOR THE LOW, LOW PRICE OF 150 YUAN.
2. Despite my mediocre knowledge of Chinese, I have made friends with a girl from my class! And possibly her friend as well! We had dinner together and it was very fun. It was ridiculously great to hear people speaking Japanese again; I'm quite out of practice but it feels like coming home. And it looks like we're going to trade English practice for Japanese practice, with explanations of terms in three languages altogether.
3. There is a nice young man downstairs who lived in Chicago for eight years and has really excellent sideburns. (What? There are some things you just notice, okay.*)
* Especially if you come from ISU, the land of extremely questionable facial hair.
